History II 1800-2000 follows the global impact of Western industrialization from 1800 through the twenty-first century. A perspective on non-Western development, as well as imperialism, during this period is provided by case studies in Asia, Latin America and Africa. Some of the major themes include ideologies, modernism, gender, revolution and environmental issues. Human and physical geography are also used to bring other insights into the history of the times. Emphasis is placed on historiography, source analysis and essay writing.
